The survivor of a 2012 Boston shooting tells a local TV station that he believes Aaron Hernandez was the triggerman behind the double homicide.

According to MyFoxBoston.com, the unnamed witness who was wounded in the incident, said referring to Hernandez, "When I see his face, I just recognize his face. Compare his face that night to his face now. It's that face that I remember."

The former Patriots’ tight end is charged with the murder of Odin Lloyd in last June. The 2012 shooting, which took place in Boston’s theater district, is currently under investigation by police.

Danny Abreu and Safiro Furtado were seated in the front seat of car when a group of men opened fire around 2 a.m. on Shawmut Avenue. The witness told MyFoxBoston he heard someone shout, "What up, Negroes?" right before the shooting began.

"Things happened so fast. I was trying to defend myself," the witness is quoted as saying. "They were shooting everywhere inside the car, front to back. They just came to kill. That's it.”

The witness told the TV station he recognized Hernandez's face after his arrest for the Lloyd murder.
